One of my very favorite works of Shelley Fabares is the made-for-TV
movie Brian's Song (1971). IMO she was achieving one of the best looks of her career. These images are from the film itself and publicity stills -- hot. Hot. HOT. HOT !! So nice in these first 2 images: her lovely dark hair swept back off of her forehead, wearing small earrings. Absolutely love Shelley's look in these photos, super-pretty: O M G - that one right above may well be my all-time favorite Shelley Fabares photo. Stunningly beautiful. These next 2 images illustrate the wonderful long length of Shelley's hair, hot to the extreme! The section pulled back exhibits gentle curling, very nice! Dark and lovely: An interesting image illustrating Shelley's dramatic role; center-parted beautiful tresses, somewhat heavier eye makeup: This final image is from her series work, The Brian Keith Show a.k.a. The Little People. Center-parted hair, brighter color, with hoop earrings: |

In all these pictures she is flat out gorgeous.
She is still with us at age 82, along with her husband, actor Mike Farrell. Interesting fact I heard when she was interviewed on the That's Classic Youtube channel: her aunt, actress Nanette Fabray (1920 - 2018), changed her named from Fabares, since the name was mispronounced. |

I learned something yesterday: after taking the following screen photos
from the Catchy airing of a Season 3 episode, I wrote a new post and next went to add the photos in. But in the process, Cloudflare blocked me and I was unable to get back into the site -- so I learned to not create a lengthy commented post without saving the text before it gets lost.  |

As I mentioned earlier, the made-for-TV movie Brian's Song is
must-see for Fabares Fans. Winner of multiple Emmy Awards. I'm excited to upload some new screenshots. Shelley looks so foxy! Here in the right-side image, Shelley resembles Karen Valentine to some extent: At left is a good look at how her hair is partially pulled up, gosh she is really beautiful: Coming up we again have images displaying the fullness and length of Shelley's lovely hair, her look is SO HOT! A couple of years after this film, Shelley would begin her co-starring role on The Brian Keith Show / The Little People, and she retained the super long length of her hair. Love it: |
